Faculty Speaker Series

 

The Legal Theory Workshop Series and the Internal Speaker Talks

Miami Law provides an intensely engaged laboratory for discussion of faculty works-in-progress. We are proud to say that our Legal Theory Workshops feature a diverse range of distinguished scholars discussing their innovative legal scholarship over a range of topics. Our Internal Speaker Talks focus inward, on the germinating works of our own faculty colleagues. These and other elements of Miami Law’s scholarly engagements demonstrate a commitment to a rich and inclusive intellectual life.

To Attend: All University of Miami faculty are invited to attend. All others should contact Alina Hernandez at ahernandez@law.miami.edu to obtain a copy of the presentation paper prior to the lecture date. Students must also contact Alina Hernandez to RSVP. Come join us!

    Special: Miami Law Faculty Present the Law of Covid-19 Webinars

    Miami Law faculty are presenting a series of free, online webinars on many of the critical socio-legal issues raised by the COVID-19 pandemic to broad audiences of faculty members and scholars, law students and Miami Law alumni, the judiciary, other members of the legal community, and the general public.

    April 14th: The Law of COVID-19: Miami Law Addresses Politics in Pandemic America

    The COVID-19 pandemic raises legal issues on every front and this webinar addressed some of the most important of those issues and gave attendees an opportunity to hear remarks from distinguished faculty experts - from both the Law School and the Department of Political Science at the University of Miami - on a variety of questions this pandemic raises for and about politics. The discussion ranged over constitutional, statutory and policy issues - such as the challenges of holding a general election in the context of a pandemic (including, for voters, how to vote to enhance election security and voter participation, and for candidates, how to campaign and raise funds); the impacts of disasters on presidential election outcomes; Congressional and state legislative responses to COVID-19; the politics of our healthcare financing system, especially Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act in pandemic conditions; and the politics of class and sovereign authority in the U.S. and elsewhere under pandemic conditions.

    Watch Recording from April 14th

    April 7th: "The Law of COVID-19: Miami Law Addresses Crime and Law in Pandemic America"

    Expert Miami Law faculty, as well as a distinguished judge, provided an overview of various ways in which the virus and responses to it intersect with criminal law and process. Among topics explored: challenges of remote judicial operations; the impact of the pandemic on prison conditions; concerns about prisoner release programs; challenges presented by domestic violence responses; moral panic and the increase in gun sales; the extent of criminalization assisted by global surveillance; the privacy-reducing impact of technological innovations; and the types of financial crimes weaponized by the pandemic.

    March 30th: "The Law of COVID-19: Miami Law Addresses Civil and Human Rights, Public Health, Financial Stability, Poverty, and Privacy Law in Pandemic America"

    The first of a planned trio of webinars, the session offered an overview of some ways in which the virus and responses to it intersect with civil rights, human rights, public health, financial stability, technology, and privacy. It also provided a lens on the operation of courts and the judiciary dealing with vulnerable populations.
